A little birdie told me Bread & Hearth makes the best scones ever, so I made it a point to give it a go...and here’s what I think: I wouldn’t call it The Best, but it definitely has the potential to be a super solid one. Breaking past the golden-brown crunchy exterior brings us to a fairly flaky and light pastry, that’s very mildly sweetened and speckled with earthy raisins. All that’s great flavour-wise, but I felt it was lacking that buttery fragrance and epic flaky texture you get from a freshly baked pastry — if yknow what I mean. Perhaps it’s because the pastry’s been sitting out there for quite a bit, only kissing the toaster for a minute before being served, it was a tad stale.
